I know it's hard but you can do it! It's only for a couple of more days.

Remember you will be able to eat again. Try to embrace the process, this is going to lead you to a new happier, healthier life

I'm also preop, but I've done liquid diets and I know it's hard, but you can do this. Run to GNC and get some different Protein Powder if you really hate the Unjury but don't give up. By tomorrow you'll be feeling a bit better and this will get easier as you go along.

Try body fortress whey isolate vanilla creme

Or premier rtd chocolate from costco or SAMs

Both mix well with coffee for a nice change up!

You can do this stay strong!!!

I like the Atkins Advantage strawberry shake. I tried the Wild berry but don't like the after taste. I'm going to try others before Tuesday which when I start my pre-op diet.

the Atkins cafe carmel coffee is to die for. 160cals w 17g Protein lil low for the calories but def a good way to start your day. check out the world according to eggface.com very helpful info and recipes

NEVER go to GNC unless you have the money to do so. Go to costco and get Premier Protein shakes they are great. You can add some Peanut Butter and it helps. Also get some cream lowfat Soups add son nonfat dry milk for Protein and to it makes it richer that has helped me.

i get it that you are struggling with liquids

we've all been there, done that

other sleever "up above" have given good suggestions on different shakes to help make the constant liquid possibly taste better

you just gotta grin and bear it, hang in there (I know easier said than done)

you have to be kind to your tummy, thats the reason for Clear Liquids, then slowly "upping" your eating to full liquids, then pureed, soft, and 'regular solids"

it does take a bit to get to the "end of the rainbow", but it will happen

"God grant me patience, just hurry up about it "

good luck

continued healthy speedy recovery

gotta push through it. It's important. best to stay busy

I am 3 days post op and didn't know how good Water was until I couldn't have any for 24 hours. I know it's hard but it's mind over matter. You can do it, just stay prayed up and before you know it your healthy days will be here.

chicken broth has been my saving grace. I hate sweet stuff and the savory flavor of chicken broth is amazing!!!! I use Knorr Caldo de Pollo.

It's usually on the Soup isle. It only takes a teaspoon for a 16 oz cup. Try it. I PROMISE it will help!!!

As far as hunger, the Protein shakes are what satisfy the hunger for me. Hope this helps!!!

Hazel I tried looking it up and couldn't get any nutrition info on it. Do you know what the sodium is?

My favorite thing during liquids was to boil black Beans in chicken broth and then purée them in the blender... Strain the beans and the Soup is amazing and fills good on your stomach. I even added a lil sour cream for a slight thickness and it was so amazing. It's just what you need to get away from all the sweet Protein flavors and drinks
